    • SAKAI Dos and Don'ts
    • Importing Calendars into Schedule
    • Sakai Schedule Feature Navigating and Using WebDAV PC
    • Resources General

    • The Module Tool

    • Basics of Assignments
    • Message Center
  • Also due now are:
    • Announcements
    • Site Info
    • Syllabus
    • Drop Box

By not later than Mid-week we expect to have completed:

  • Basic WIKI
    (Email Archive
    (Although a more detailed WIKI is needed and will take a bit more time.)

Also this week we should/could see:

  • - A Tutorial on the SAKAI Interface
  • Advanced Module Management and Options
  • Global Permissions

and later will come:

  • Tests & Quizzesand finally
  • Gradebook

Not currently on the list for a topic to be covered in a "Tech Tip" are other tools mentioned in the "Comparative Overview of Tools" document. They are:

  • News
  • Preferences
  • Project Sites
  • Section Group Info

Another introductory document that might go up toward the top of our list is:

  • A table showing SAKAI LMS tools vs the My UC Davis CMS tools (as they are available now and as they will be) is something we feel nees to be in the intoduction section. Maybe right in front of or after "Getting Started with SAKAI". These would NOT be written instructions. In fact, the recently circulated TSP documents Sakai Timeline, "Comparative Overview of Tools" section is not unlike what we had in mind (with a brief introductory blurb). Something like this just seems to FIT there at the front of the list of Tech Tips. It would serve to help MyUC Davis CMS users navigate in SAKAI. We are working this one out later Friday afternoon.

Thus, the "SAKAI Tech Tips" as we have them, can probably be shared next week depending upon when they all are submitted and Nancy Olsen's schedule.

All,

Attached is a mock questionnaire that we would like to give to all TSCs in academic departments. The goal here is to better gauge their role in supporting course management tools, especially those external to MyUCDavis. To that end, please review the attached document and feel free to suggest additional questions or changes to the existing ones. Please keep in mind that we want to keep this survey as short as possible, to ensure that TSCs will take the time to complete it.

As we will soon be converting the document into an online, interactive, multimedia quiz, we need to finalize the copy fairly soon. Please respond by Tuesday, April 03 to ensure that you're opinions get incorporated.
